De Sciglio confident of Wembley win despite Juve's 'wasted' 2-0 lead

Juventus defender Mattia De Sciglio admits his side "wasted" a big opportunity against Tottenham as they let a 2-0 lead slip to draw 2-2 in Turin, but remains confident that they can earn a win in London.

Gonzalo Higuain's double in the first nine minutes put Juve in control of the first leg of the Champions League last-16 tie, but goals from Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen gave the visitors a slight edge ahead of the return game at Wembley next month.

Higuain also missed a penalty in the first half, but Spurs largely controlled the match after their nightmare opening, with Massimiliano Allegri's side managing just 33 per cent possession on home soil.
